Fire season starts for them and rainy season starts for us. Although, the fire season was KILLER earlier this year! We were actually getting smoke from the Orlando fires all the way here in Boca Raton, it smelled so bad. I can only imagine what it was like there. Ah, see!

The state has not yet entered its rain-every-afteroon phase, which doesn't usually start until late June. So, by late April, it's often very dry. And windy. And hot. Perfect fire conditions. Bring an asbestos suit with you, and maybe a gas mask. The other thing you should know about Central Florida in April and May is that it’s the beginning of FIRE season.

As for hired cars, I'm not sure of the going rates, I haven't rented one in about 2 years and that was actually not in FL.

I don't suppose you know what the rough prices for a hire car (hired locally) are? (Yes, I am about to check on the internet as well...)

In April and May, there will be a lot of humidity, pretty much sunny all day (until the daily rains come, usually between 2-4PM EDT, lasting 10 minutes to an hour), and temps around 75F-88F. Temps in Orlando, if that's where you're going, will be a bit higher due to smog and the sheer amount of vehicles around the city pumping up the thermometer.
